Scripture tells us that praying for our Gleaders is one of the best ways we can do this. “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence” (1 Timothy 2:1-2 NKJV). It is better to pray for governmental leaders — local, state, and national — than to criticize them. This doesn’t mean we always agree with their every action or condone legislative decisions contrary to biblical principles.

Arizona in Crisis
1 Arizona in Crisis: A Criminal Justice System Falling Behind the Rest of the Nation Figure 1 ARIZONA’S INCREASE IN IMPRISONMENT IS AN OUTLIER, EVEN AMONG THE HIGHEST INCARCERATING STATES Top 10 Highest Incarcerating States in 2000 Arizona is a national outlier for its large prison population and high corrections spending. The state has the fifth highest imprisonment 20% rate in the country, meaning it keeps more of its people in prison 20% than almost any other state.1 Even as the national conversation on criminal justice has shifted, and as most states have embraced 10% 1% reform, Arizona has stayed stubbornly backward. In the past decade, while Arizona has doubled-down on failed “tough on crime” policies, 0% most states have enacted reforms and 32 states have simultaneously -3% -2% -4% -10% reduced crime and imprisonment.2 -7% -7% -14% Even among other states with large per capita prison populations, -20% Arizona stands out. Since 2000, Arizona’s imprisonment rate has -21% -25% grown by 20 percent, 20 times more than any of the other top 10 -30% imprisoning states of 2000.3 While most of the top 10 states in 2000 ‘0016 RATE CHANGE IN IMPRISONMENT Texas Nevada Arizona Georgia have lowered their imprisonment rate — some by more than 20 Alabama Delaware Louisiana Oklahoma percent — Arizona continues to imprison more and more people at Mississippi South Carolina great cost to taxpayers, families, and communities.4 Source: Bureau of Justice Statistics, National Prisoners Statistics series In fact, most of the states with the highest imprisonment rates have taken important steps to reduce their prison populations in recent years.

Legislative Bulletin Is Published by the League of Arizona Cities and Towns
ISSUE 11 - MARCH 18, 2011 Legislative Overview Today is the 68th day of the first session of Arizona's 50th Legislature. The past week was an unusually busy one at the State Capitol, where the news was dominated by the Senate budget plan (see story below), the forced ouster of the Senate Majority Leader and defeat of immigration bills authored by the Senate President. Late Tuesday, Senate leadership released its comprehensive budget plan. The package of budget bills (SB 1612 through SB 1624) includes spending reductions at least $368 million deeper than those proposed by Governor Brewer. It also omits some $275 million in spending increases proposed in the Governor's budget. The budget package passed the Senate on Wednesday on a series of votes that generally followed along party lines. In other news, Republicans voted 12-9 to remove Senator Scott Bundgaard (R-Peoria) from his leadership position as Senate Majority Leader. He was replaced by Senator Andy Biggs (R-Gilbert). Highway User Revenue Fund Among the proposals included in the Senate budget is a diversion of $83 million from the Highway User Revenue Fund (HURF) to the Arizona Department of Transportation. Approximately one-half of that amount, $43 million, comes from that portion of HURF funding distributed to cities, towns and counties. The net effect on municipalities is a loss of approximately $26 million in HURF distributions over and above the $12.5 million reduction previously proposed by the Governor. The League opposes the additional HURF reduction and prefers and supports the Governor's budget. We will continue to work constructively with legislators and the Governor on a final budget that minimizes negative impacts on cities and towns.

Bulletin 5: February 12, 2021
Issue 5 – February 12, 2021 Legislative Update Today is the 33rd day of session and 1,707 bills and 113 memorials or resolutions have been introduced. The period to introduce legislation is now over for both chambers. Except for budget bills, no new legislation can be introduced. Next week is the last week to hear bills in the chamber of origin, which means that committees for the week will have lengthy agendas as legislators try to get their bills heard before the deadline. The legislature continues to move swiftly. So far, the Governor has signed 18 bills, while 12 await his signature or veto. Utility Condemnation This week the Senate Commerce discussed a strike-everything amendment to SB1154 related to eminent domain, sponsored by Sen. J.D. Mesnard (R-Chandler), but did not take a vote on the bill. It has been rescheduled for a hearing in next Wednesday at 2 p.m. in the same committee. The striker amendment would require a city or town exercising eminent domain to file one or more appraisals with the superior court that support the proposed compensation for the condemnation. The League testified in opposition in committee because the current statutes already require cities and towns to obtain and deliver an appraisal to the utility being condemned, but the appraisal itself is not admitted in the superior court case due to procedural rules. The amendment isn’t clear about how the court is supposed to handle the appraisal once its filed, which will likely lead to increased attorneys’ fees to litigate over the role of the appraisal in the court case.
